Bitbucket PAT Creation Notes

Bitbucket allows PATs to be created at the Project or the Repository level. In this description the PAT was created at the repository level

• Within the Bitbucket repository, go to Repository Settings -> Access Tokens select Create Repository Access Token

• Give the token a name that can be easily identified
• Select the scopes of Read/Write/Delete
• Press Create

There should be a new screen that appears showing the newly created PAT and the various ways to leverage it. Be sure to save the contents of this screen as everything but the email user.email section will no longer be visible once closed.

The Administrator can create the data source credentials by selecting the (Create new credential) button on the Manage Data Source Credentials page.
